RF zones

RF Radio Frequency. RF refers to the electromagnetic wave frequencies within a range of 3 kHz to 300 GHz, including the frequencies used for communications or Radar signals. zones enable the creation of RF Radio Frequency. RF refers to the electromagnetic wave frequencies within a range of 3 kHz to 300 GHz, including the frequencies used for communications or Radar signals. environments for individual APs. RF Radio Frequency. RF refers to the electromagnetic wave frequencies within a range of 3 kHz to 300 GHz, including the frequencies used for communications or Radar signals. zones are configured using radio profiles. Radio profiles allow the creation of additional radio profiles which can be associated to one or more APs using their zone name. Each radio profile has a zone parameter which can be configured except for the default radio profile and each AP can be assigned a single RF Radio Frequency. RF refers to the electromagnetic wave frequencies within a range of 3 kHz to 300 GHz, including the frequencies used for communications or Radar signals. zone. Instant supports up to 10 radio profiles each for both 2.4 GHz Gigahertz. radio and 5 GHz Gigahertz. radio in an Instant cluster. A single RF Radio Frequency. RF refers to the electromagnetic wave frequencies within a range of 3 kHz to 300 GHz, including the frequencies used for communications or Radar signals. zone can be configured on multiple APs and all APs should be configured to a RF Radio Frequency.

RF refers to the electromagnetic wave frequencies within a range of 3 kHz to 300 GHz, including the frequencies used for communications or Radar signals. zone is assigned to an AP, the default radio profile will be used.

Configuring RF Zones for Instant AP

RF Radio Frequency. RF refers to the electromagnetic wave frequencies within a range of 3 kHz to 300 GHz, including the frequencies used for communications or Radar signals. zones are created by configuring radio profiles with a zone name and then attaching them to the Instant AP using the same zone name. Only one RF Radio Frequency. RF refers to the electromagnetic wave frequencies within a range of 3 kHz to 300 GHz, including the frequencies used for communications or Radar signals. zone can be applied to an AP and if no specific zone is assigned to an AP then the default radio profile will be used. The radio profile assigned to the AP will use the following priority: assigned RF Radio Frequency. RF refers to the electromagnetic wave frequencies within a range of 3 kHz to 300 GHz, including the frequencies used for communications or Radar signals. zone > default radio profile > ARM Adaptive Radio Management. ARM dynamically monitors and adjusts the network to ensure that all users are allowed ready access. It enables full utilization of the available spectrum to support maximum number of users by intelligently choosing the best RF channel and transmit power for APs in their current RF environment.  profile.
